When i used to work as a physio a long time ago, i wasn't a believer and so even though i had a lot of compassion it was only half of the picture.

Last week i did an advanced medical training to equip me more for life in the bush. It was really an excellent time of getting up to date again and to learn new procedures in case of an emergency.

As we worked alongside the nurses and doctors the Friday night (in a government training hospital) i was really challenged by seeing so much "raw" sin. Previously i just felt for the patient - you know, wounds, diseases, heart problems, etc.........but this time i saw a world needing salvation, needing healing, needing God. What a privilege to touch a foot and pray to my Father for calmness and peace upon the patient, for healing, but above all for another chance to get to know the only true living God! How sad i was to see them in pain, people without any form of Hope. We live in a broken world, we cannot be silent any longer!! How can we keep the Hope we have all to ourselves??
